PowerEXPORT Examples

PowerEXPORT allows PowerFLOW results to be used as loads and boundary conditions in other solvers to facilitate advanced coupled simulations to predict wind noise, seal and latch loads, and flow-induced stresses and deformations. Following are examples demonstrating some of these capabilities.

Wind Noise

PowerFLOW provides highly accurate predictions of the flow-induced pressure fluctuations that are sources of wind noise. PowerEXPORT maps these pressure fluctuations from the PowerFLOW model to an acoustic model. An acoustic simulation is then performed to predict the transmission of the noise through the side glass and into the interior of the cabin.
